Monkey King (http://foolip.org/wiki/Uproar_in_Heaven)

I can clearly remember this show, synchronized in danish, from when i was only a few years (maybe 4 or 5). It has left a big impression on me, that's for sure. Probably my first contact with "kung fu"?!? Can remember the monkey gods stick fighting, hehe 8o

I'm getting this one for sure.. Thanks for the head up :D
